Ferrer-Bobet Selecció Especial 2016 (96 WA)
“The expressive 2016 Selecció Especial reminds me of the 2010, with all the baby fat and all the primary notes still there. It seems to have a lot of everything in an amazing balance, so nothing feels out of place—acidity, tannins, fruit, saltiness. It’s full bodied, with soft tannins and a subtle thread of acidity going through its core. It should make old bones. It’s so elegant I forgot I was tasting a Cariñena… 3,679 bottles and 100 magnums.”
